Follow Your Heart (Chapter 7, page 1 of 12)

They spent the car ride back talking about a cover story to tell people how they met and where. The only people who knew where Lisa has gone were her parents, so she could count on them to cover for her. They all agreed that Lisa's parents would know the truth, but everyone else could be fed a version of their making. After laughs about saying they had met at a religious retreat, "Yeah, anyone is going to believe Michael went to a religious retreat and didn't get kicked out" to stating that they had met in Brazil at a nudist beach, "No one is going to believe that Lisa, the ice queen, got naked in front of a crowd." they finally decided on a very simple story.

Lisa had decided she needed the time away after the mess made by the jerk she was going to marry and decided to have a nice quiet vacation in the Bahamas. Michael had been there partying, and they had met by chance one night at a restaurant. Michael had recognized her and decided to see if she would melt for him, she had recognized him and thought it would be fun to cause a small scandal if anyone saw them together and they began to talk. They shared a meal and decided they liked each other enough to start dating. Now they just wanted to be left alone to see if their romance could work.
